Couple Charged in Teen's Death

Castile, NY (WBEN) A 15 year old girl's death back in January has led to charges against two people.
Wyoming County Sheriff's deputies say they responded to call of a 15 year old girl having a seizure.

The girl died the next day at Women and Children's Hospital in Buffalo.

An Autopsy was conducted by the Erie County Medical Examiner’s Office and on May 2, 2014, the results came back as Homicide due to Medical Neglect. The child was not receiving proper care and medication for an existing condition.
